my fault now i see what you say about tv but why would they have racquets that aren't what they look like? for marketing purposes?

They have all used the same racquets for years without changing...the companies just give them the new models paint which sells them racquets. Search paintjob and you will see what Im talking about....

1) i think you're wrong about roddick because it's sporting the newer cortex model paintjob on his racquet for the french open 07 it's very obvious during his match with andreev

If it weren't for paintjobs, tennis racquet companies would go out of business.

Then How did Dunlop survive manufacturing and selling the Dunlop Maxply Fort from 1938 to 1983 or Wilson manufacturing and selling the Jack Kramer Autograph from 1948 to 1983.

Without Paint Jobs the racquet companies would have to market the racquets in a different way instead of each company claiming a new revolutionary technology every 2 years and claiming the Players on Tour are using them.
